Candy-Coated Unicorns and Converse All Stars (flap series) by Inua Ellams

dark emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

4.0

I just finished this poetry pamphlet and had the urge to applaud. There is such a liveness, a litheness, such music and rhythm and breath in these poems. They are full of evocative images, and what struck me most is the *scenes*. They tell stories of characters, of moments, of places. Some of the poems' closing lines... Damn.
